Explains your issue with its mounting on an LE chassis; so, I would probably nix the Ford GT body with the older CRC Gen X-10 chassis'.

Didn't notice that until you brought it up. Good catch!

Hey all, I would like to gather some info on these mounting locations to design a more universal plate to provide a wider selection of body post positions regardless of which CRC you have.
1 are all CRC chassis using the same hole pattern for where the rear plates attach to the chassis plate?

More questions to come.
